The Land of Fire: Music of Azerbaijan
sheds light on a corner of the world-music spectrum that's
too seldom illuminated; it's a unique blend of sounds from the various cultures that have infl
uenced the area over time. One may be reminded of Russian, Turkish, Arabic, and Persian music, and that's just for starters. This sampler makes an excellent introduction for the uninitiated.
